    RESCUED BUT HOW LONG?
    THESE YOUNG BOYS MAY BE FALLING FROM FRYING PAN TO DIRECT FIRE.
    IT MAY BE THAT SOME COMPETITOR OUT OF PROFESSIONAL JEALOUSY TIPPED THE POLICE TO ACT AGAINST A WELL RUNNING COTTAGE INDUSTRY.
    HOW ARE WE SURE THAT THESE CHILDREN WILL NOT BE WORSE SLAVES IN COMING DAYS?
    WILL ANYONE TRACK THEIR FATE?
    AFTER HEAT OF THE NEWS DIES DOWN THEY WILL EITHER STARVE WITHOUT FOOD/SCHOOL OR BE MADE WORSE SLAVES IN SOME OTHER PLACE ( THERE IS NO DEARTH IN MERA DESH MAHAN) OR MAY TURN INTO ILLEGAL ACTIVITIES TO SATISFY THEIR NEEDS.
    LIFE IS MORE THAN OFTEN CRUEL FOR THESE HAPLESS ANGELS.
